Mount Jaboi Volcano
Gunung Api Jaboi
A small active volcano in the south of Weh Island. A walk leads to fumaroles and a sulphur geothermal zone, with views over the island's south coast.
Mount Jaboi is the only volcano on Weh Island, about 600 metres above sea level. Near the crater are fumaroles spewing sulphurous steam, and yellow crystals. The climb from Jaboi village takes about 30–45 minutes. The ground is slippery and hot, so stay away from the fumaroles, and it is best to ask a villager to lead the way. Dense tropical vegetation lines the route, and from the top you can see Balohan Harbour. Admission costs a small fee.
